Taste of Cherry — 2.5/5
I didn't know the dialogue was improvised! That makes me like it more. But, without that knowledge, I didn't really care for this. So what is true? I have often struggled with the Criterion side of things. I love movies!! They are the greatest art!!! But movies like this, and Jeanne Dielman, always feel like a job, and only sometimes is that work rewarded. Jeanne Dielman is great, I love it (though still a chore). This, is fine. When Netflix delivered DVDs, these were the movies that sat on my table for a month before I built up the willpower to watch them. I think this is something for me to contend with—do I like these movies? Are they worth the effort? I am afraid I will miss out on something by not trying. That is most likely my answer. I must experience it all. We are in the Library of Babel, and one of these movies contains the secrets of the universe.
